I’ll really lose something we’ll see

what God does and we’ll go on home psalm

37 beginning at verse 23 will reverse 23

to 25 ties in very well with the song it

says the steps of a good man better

translation valiant person strong person

the steps of a valiant person are

ordered by the Lord and he the Lord

delights in his way

though he fall he shall not utterly be

cast down for the Lord upholds him with

his hand I have been young now I am old

yet I have not seen the righteous

forsaken nor his descendants begging

bread the steps of a good man are

ordered ordered are set up are erected

are established steps of a good man are

established they’re established is

already done they are established they

are set up they are established the

steps the going forth the going forth of

a good person a valiant person the going

forth of a valiant person the going

forth the steps each and every step that

creates their going forth has already

been settled they are established they

are set up tell your neighbor it’s

already done it’s already done

it’s already done father we thank you so

much for this word it is a lamp into our

feet and it is a light unto our path and

God I sense that you desire to do a

number of amazing and beautiful things

in our lives today but one thing I am

convinced you are after is a conviction

within us that believes and receives and

lives in the conscious reality that it

is already done

so my prayer if you don’t do anything

else my prayer is that you would set us

free to the next degree based on our

spiritual comprehension of the victory

that we possess not a victory that we’re

trying to gain but a victory that was

procured in Christ meaning that once we

got Christ we got it and father may the

evidence of that be the eradication of

anxiety Oh hallelujah

whoa hallelujah may the evidence of that

be assuring up of ourselves from the

inside out that would cause us to no

longer receive what is beneath us that

desperation would disappear Oh

hallelujah and that we would only

receive high things lofty things things

that are worth who you called and

created us to be father made this

revelation be so strong that we would

untether ourselves from everything that

is connected to a lesser version of

ourselves Oh Lamar abhisheka Abba yeah

yeah that that the revelation would be

so profound and so striking in our

hearts and minds that it would

immediately reveal to us everything that

you did not build that’s in our lives

even walls of protection that are no

longer necessary because you’ve got us

covered and so got what I’m asking for

is transformation that we would leave

out of here

a little higher than we were upon going

in a little more sure a little more

victory a little more clarity and I pray

God even in the mist God the dreams

would beginning to come back that you

would put put an AI can do in our

spirits yeah then we would have a fresh

brand new yes I can in our spirits since

it’s already done we might as well go

for it do that heal us bless us

encourage us edify us empower us

strengthen us elevate us in Jesus name

Amen amen do me a favor you agree just

put your hands together celebrate God

and honor the person next to you as you

take your seat hallelujah already done

it already done hallelujah who’ve

already done hmm well here on February

16 2020 I want to officially welcome you

to 2020 now that may seem a little

strange aren’t you about a month and a

half too late no because I believe that

the reality of 2020 is just now truly

beginning to be realized

because you know how it is we step into

a new year and we have our plan and we

have our strategy and we have our sense

of how things should go and then we step

in bright-eyed and bushy-tailed and

everything is wonderful and then

typically we realize that most of the

time it’s actually a little more

difficult than we thought I was talking

to a friend of mine I just was thinking

he’s a championship boxer and I called

him up because I felt like February like

this moment this time I just felt like

there was some sort of connection

between the second round of a 12 round

bout and the second month in a new year

and I called him like a man um I have a

question for you I don’t know much about

boxing or whatever but tell me what what

is the second round like describe to me

the second round and it was like well

you know and in the second round you you

have to typically make some adjustments

and you have to reassess your strategy

because you came into the ring with one

strategy based on you studying your

opponent and studying the way that they

move and and all sorts of boxing

thoughts and boxing strategies that I

don’t know anything about he said and

you study that and then but once you get

in the ring that’s where it goes from

conceptualization to realization because

this is what I thought but actually this

boys hitting a lot harder but this guy

was hitting a lot harder than I thought

or they’re a little faster than I

thought you know they they gained a

little bit I guess they trained well

when they’re lighter and they’re hitting

harder and so in the second round is

when you you have to kind of reassess

and you have to to maybe change your

strategy a little bit and I feel like

that’s that’s where we are as we’re

dealing with the reality of 2020 see

there’s one thing the concept of 2020 is

oftentimes different than the reality of

2020 and I don’t know is it just me or

did January feel like it was like 79

days long it just

it like like felt like at least six

months are you Jimmy it was just this

crime like this is just January and so

that helped me to understand that we

have our strategy and what we think and

then there is an actual strategy right

and and the actual strategy is God’s

strategy and when we look at the text

we’re gonna see that that our life is a

strategy like everything about our life

right now is a strategy and I talk about

it all the time and Jeremiah chapter 1

God says before I formed you in the

belly I knew you and me knowing you is

why I formed you which meant that the

only reason why you were formed was

because of God’s strategy mmm there’s a

there’s a there’s a strategy and and for

your life your life is a stretch there’s

a strategy to your life it is not random

it is not let’s just navigate life and

let’s just see what happens that’s not

it

no there literally is a strategy for

your life a calculated strategy and

there are not three strategies for your

life there not three there’s one

strategy for your life because before

you got here God already saw the steps

that he ordained for you to take the

steps that he ordained there’s certain

things that God has ordained for your

life and you have to get to it as

quickly as possible because when you get

to walking and what God has ordained

there’s no failure oh I didn’t say that

there are no disappointments we’ll talk

about that but there’s no failure when

you begin to align with what God with

the strategy of God concerning you there

is nothing that will be able to stop you

the only thing that will be able to stop

you is you are you tracking with me so

when I look at when I look at this text

it further underscores the fact that

that that my life is a strategy and so

it says it says the steps of a good man

are ordered by the Lord that word

ordered is an interesting word because

it literally means to be

set up right to be set up to be erected

God my steps got my life is not random

my path is not random my steps have been

set up already I feel that you have

already been set up and this cures me

from wondering if I’m gonna be okay this

cures me from wondering if God has a

path of success and significance for me

it cures me from that because he says

right there God has already he has

already ordered your steps they are set

up they are erect they are there the

steps of a good man are ordered by the

Lord and then I looked at this this the

second part of that verse and it says

and he meaning God delights in his way

or he delights in this path that he has

set up I say this better so so so your

life your steps the steps of a valiant

person a strong person and I’m gonna

talk about why that’s significant in a

second but those steps have already been

set up and been set up right and then it

says and God delights in that path so

regardless of how you feel about that

path God delights in that path but if

but but a closer look at that word

delight is interest and closer look at

look at that word delight means if you

study it it means to incline to or to

bend toward I’m like God help me

understand the significance of that the

steps of a good man are ordered by the

Lord and God is inclined to and is bent

toward that path and then that hit me

that that means that that the presence

of God and the power of God and the

favor of God and the resources of God

are all bent and slanted towards these

ordered steps have you taken notes write

this down write this down write this

down and I’ll put it up there

the power the favor and the resources of

God are bent toward the path that he is

set up for you so all of heavens

resources Philip the favor if you’re

wondering where favor is favor is on the

path if you’re wondering where resources

are fill it right there it is on the

path some of you are trying to get stuff

done and you’re wondering why you don’t

possess what you need and it could be

that you don’t possess what you need

because you are stepping out of order

you’re stepping out of turn you are not

stepping into ordered steps because he

is inclined God God will not anoint what

is not ordained oh let me take my time

right up in here right up in here right

over there in other words there is a

path that is anointed there is a path

that is full of favor there is a path

that resources are already assigned to

relationships finances wisdom insight

open doors yeses there is a path and God

will not Bend towards a path that is not

you and so sometimes what we try to do

is we say God I want this and God will

you please bend towards where I’m at and

God says I can’t because I’m only bit

towards what I’ve already blessed are

you tracking with me and that’s why it

is not wise to ask God to bless what

you’re doing you have to learn to do

what God is blessing because God right

now concerning your life in the Lord he

has already bent and inclined towards

something concerning your life that

there is something concerning your life

right now that God has already anointed

that you don’t even have to pray about

you don’t even have to ask God to do it

it’s already blessed it will already

work it is already settled and it’s

already done there is something seeing

ordered steps ordered that’s why I have

to get to my ordered steps I have to

find out what my order steps are I have

to find the steps of a good man or order

for the Lord I’ve got

stop walking and recalibrate myself and

reassess my strategy because if it’s not

working it is possible that I’m not

where God wants me or I am not

positioned properly in the place that

God wants me to be Oh take my time it’s

gonna be one of them days into hanging

tell ya he’s been got got his slant got

his biased he’s not biased against you

he’s biased for you he’s leaning towards

something so we have to we have to

become skilled at perceiving where God

is leaning I’ve got to get I’ve got to

get better at sense

where God is III allow I’ll tell you

right now I allow the presence of God to

help me I walk by faith and not by sight

I can’t trust sight sight is tricky

because sight is all based on temporary

and because I am Not sure on on carnal

I personally am inclined towards carnal

or temporary things so I have to get to

this place where I don’t trust my eyes I

trust the presence where is the presence

blowing right it may not make sense it

doesn’t seem like there’s anything over

there but I feel the presence of God

over there and so I begin to incline my

feet to the place where the presence is

can I talk to you like this because God

has slanted towards what he is anointed

he’s inclined let’s keep reading here

though let’s keep reading and so it says

the steps of a good man are ordered by

the Lord he delights in his way but then

this verse starts getting a little

confusing it gets confusing because

after that it says though he fall okay

so so hold on I’m confused and confused

because it just said just talk about

steps being ordered right steps of a

good man are ordered by the Lord whoa

God is ordering my steps he is already

gone ahead of me he’s already done it’s

already done hallelujah it’s already

done it’s already done and he delights

in the way and God is excited about the

path that I’m on surely this is good but

then this confusing thing shows up and

it says though he fall that’s is this

verse out of place how can my steps be

ordered by the Lord and yet I still fall

how can my steps be ordered by the Lord

and yet I experience disappointment

something’s wrong something’s wrong

it appears that some sort of how can I

be how can God be the one ordering my

steps but I end up with a broken heart

how can God be ordering my steps and I

don’t get the job even though I pray and

held my praying people praying come on

somebody I just need you need you to

believe me with me for this I’m claiming

it I’m claiming it you’ve been there I’m

claiming it in Jesus name I’m claiming

it I sound like my dear how I’m claiming

it I’m claiming it how can I claim it

and it doesn’t come through how can I

walk with God and experience this

appointment at the same time I don’t get

it how how this is confusing and one of

the things that I believe God spoke to

me is that that some failure is ordained

now doesn’t feel that’s not sexy church

at all that is the most unsexy thing

you’ve ever heard in church before yeah

some failures ordained watch this some

knows ordained you don’t like I know

some knows ordained listen it’s

interesting we love the God who opens

doors but we are suspicious as the one

who closes them when the very passage

that says he opens doors also in that

same verse says he also closes doors he

opens doors that no man can shut and he

shuts doors that no man can open and one

of the things that I’ve learned if

you’re taking notes write this down

you’re not qualified by how well you win

but how well you lose

oh you got catch that anybody can win

well anybody can have victory over

victory over victory and and and it seem

like they’re the strongest and most

optimistic person on the planet but how

well do you lose what what do you do

what do you do I know you’re good at

winning but are you good at losing

because in the order steps of God there

are seasons where both are there I have

to fall there’s something developmental

about the way you re emerge from a fall

that has everything to do with you being

shaped into the valiant person who these

steps are ordered for can I Ella

straight it really quickly raise your

hand if you like burpees you you know

what a Burpee is Rachel you know I have

a love-hate relationship I have a

love/hate relationship with burpees but

but but I think that that that burpees

the Burpee is a perfect example of what

I’m talking about as it relates to the

development that can only come to you

from a fall I feel the Holy Spirit

there’s certain places that God is

taking you to that necessitate the type

of development that does not come to you

when things are going well I’m talking

about the type of development that comes

to you when you fall flat on your face

but somehow you find a resolve on the

inside of you that allows you to

and when you think about the Burpee the

Burpee wouldn’t be a burpee without a

fall I’m about to show you right now in

fact I’m gonna have him show you come

here come up here Yvette’s let’s give it

up for Derrick

Derek can you show us can you

demonstrate us how how falling is the

easy part in the Burpee but the real but

the real development is when you get

back can you show us real quick please

oh oh oh don’t do it again do it again

do it so I have to fall in order to get

back up and I do do it again come on

come on I have to fall in order to get

back up now my abs are getting tight my

core is getting tight my legs are

getting tight my life is getting tight

my hops are coming together I can leap

higher than I can leave come on somebody

throw up fall

[Applause]

there are some things some dimensions

that you can’t even live in without the

development that comes after a fall is

there anybody in here and you have gone

through a fall and somehow you’ve found

it within you to get back and when you

came up you didn’t come up to Spain you

were stronger

you weren’t develop come out and shout

affects you you needed to fall I know it

didn’t feel good

but another you emerged if everything

would have gone the way that you

wouldn’t that you wanted them to go

you wouldn’t be who you are you would be

a lightweight let me tell you something

one of the things that I’ve learned

about life life is fair because it only

throws heavy blows at heavy weights are

you tracking with me

it only throws heavy blows at heavy

weights and there’s some people in here

right now and you have been disappointed

but I’m telling you even that

disappointment it’s gonna work together

for your good I see you’re getting

stronger I see you get wiser I see you

getting more solid I see you

your steps and see oftentimes what

happens is when you when you experience

a disappointment it makes you feel like

you miss God you didn’t miss God

sometimes you walk right into God you

walk right into God it says though we

fall though we fall

watch this yeah you’re in my order steps

and sometimes my order step will lead

you into a fall but guess what it’s not

the type of fall you think it’s not the

type of fall that casts you utterly down

because even when you fell I was up

holding you I was propping you up I was

propping you up I hear God saying you

thought that you fail you thought that

when you fail I abandoned you or

abandoned you or you thought that you

fail because I abandoned you I will

never leave you I will never forsake you

even when you fall I’ve got you in my

hands because the same hand that allowed

you to fall is the same hand that’s

gonna lift you up that’s gonna put you

in your seat that’s gonna put you in

your high place and here is the thing

here is the thing you can’t let

disappointment kill you

I’ve learned something about God you’re

not qualified by how well you win that’s

not true even Jesus had to fall to rise

did you hear what I just said even Jesus

had to fall to rise there I love my shop

for some of you there’s some dimensions

that the only way up to is down and I

don’t want you to think there’s some of

you and you think you’ve been demoted

you haven’t been demoted you’ve been set

up you’ve been set up you’ve been set up

for your step up there’s some there’s

some barriers to dimensions that you

cannot just walk through you have to be

pulled back like a slingshot to produce

the type of velocity on the inside of

you to bring you with force to shatter

something I feel that you have to be

wound back sometimes because there’s

some barrier you can’t walk through

something you got us

you got a shadow you got a burst through

they all perusing the God who bursts

through your some things you got a burst

through and you can’t be watch this a

full time winner you need some scars I

don’t even trust people that haven’t

been through anything because because

because you you say you’ll be there but

have you been through the fire

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

you’ve been through the fire I love

everybody I need somebody with some

scars I need to know you’ve been through

something everything is good why

everything’s good but but what are you

gonna do Peter when things get up things

get rough Peter oh Jesus I’ll go with

you to the ends either telling you right

I died Jesus Jesus tatted on him for

life Jesus Jesus and the number three

for three days Jesus JC 3 for life baby

and I heat got turned up and all you saw

was his elbows now God is God is

producing something and I wanna I wanna

I wanna I want to heal something we’re

gonna move on we got a little more to

talk about anyone but I want to heal

something because sometimes we we miss

process pain and the worst type of pain

that you can experience is pain that

comes to you in a season where you were

doing all that you knew to do you gave

your all to the relationship you gave

your all to the career you gave your all

to the job you gave your all to the

ministry you gave you all you gave here

all you came all of yourself to it and

then you got hurt because the logical

mind says if I give my all to this good

thing then there’s no way in the world I

should get hurt and that’s not what

Psalm 37 says Psalm 37 says even when

I’m ordering your steps you will fall

but she won’t be utterly cast down

because the guarantee is that I’m

holding you even when you fall because I

am developing you I need you to be the

type of person that can be disappointed

but not stop believing that your

disappointment doesn’t turn into

disbelief I still need you to be on fire

I need you to shake it off yes

Hurd yes cry yes pray shake it off and

get on fire again get on fire again I

need you hot at all times

and so I believe that and I gotta say

this and this is just my testimony and I

just I’ll tell you straight out there

has never been a disappointment that

I’ve experienced in my life

that did not catapult me into another

stratosphere of grace anointing in

progress I can think of some ooh some

doozy seasons where I was like god this

is unfair I’m your dude I got jc3 on my

no I’m like God I’m your guy I’m your

doom and I laid it all down I left

corporate America I did every I leave I

did exactly what you told me to do and

yet here I am disappointed hurt upset

what part of the game is this and

somehow someway God had just as low life

line sometimes that’s always something

you getting a lifeline right now but it

was just this little lifeline and it was

God still small voice this little

lifeline and I held on to that lifeline

through the dark see sometimes it’s not

gonna be bright but you got to keep on

walking because he didn’t say the steps

of a good man are always bright steps he

just said that they’re ordered right but

he also said in another place he though

I walk through the valley of the shadow

of death I will fear no evil for you are

with me I will walk through it there’s

nothing that I faced painful physically

emotionally spiritually that didn’t set

me up for greater things later not a one

thing I can count each one and so we get

to this place where we can accept

disappointment as long as we know

there’s a strategy I can I can I can I

think that there’s some in this room and

you’re gonna have to have to tell your

disappointment but yeah there was a

strategy though

even in my paint as a strategy now now

David

he is asking a lot of us he’s preaching

to us he’s basically telling us the

steps of a good man are ordered by the

Lord he’s telling us that the order

steps that we need to pursue means to

walk in right in other words you need to

abandon how you want to do life and

really pursue God and the steps that

have already been curated for you steps

have been ordered for you right that’s a

tall order and if that order wasn’t tall

enough then he says I know by the way

you’re gonna fall even with order steps

you’re gonna fall I think David realized

that that that what he was asking

through this song asking of us even

asking of us today he knew somebody

would be reading these thousands of

years later because let’s just be honest

gonna have a real moment with you guys

let’s just be honest I came here to ask

you to surrender to God’s ordered steps

for your life now I realize that that is

a good hallelujah thing to say in church

but in actuality in your life that is a

tall order because you already got your

thing going hello somebody

you had your thing going when you walked

in here and you gonna have your thing

going when you leave out here you didn’t

come in here planning on potentially

suspending your thing whatever your

thing is can we have a real conversation

here you didn’t come in here and say my

life before this moment I am ending and

I’m gonna walk into this building and

whatever the Lord tells me to pick up

even if it’s my cross and to follow him

that’s what I’m doing walking here with

that you say imma just I’m gonna set my

thing down for a minute and I’m gonna go

up in here and worship Jesus for a

minute and my thing’s gonna be waiting

on me you’re not a man I already know

you got plans I’m not saying they’re bad

plan I’m just talking about your own

thing I’m not saying they’re negative

necessarily I’m gonna stop my our own

thing so so so this is a tall order I

came here straight out to challenge you

to call you to surrender in such a way

where you’re willing to only do God’s

thing for you that’s a tall order that’s

a tall order I realize that I think

David knew I was preaching this and not

only that but also oh and by the way

while you’re doing that you gonna fall

you gonna have to do some burpees

that’s a toward er but David seems to

wanna soften that that blow a little bit

and what he says in this last verse so

he says the steps of a good man are

ordered by the Lord he delights in his

ways as though he fall he should not

only be cast down for the Lord upholds

him with his hand and then he goes into

is he’s selling now and he says I have

been young and now I’m old and I’ve

never seen the righteous forsaken nor

his seed begging bread now David is

qualified he’s qualified to get our

attention and to speak to us like this

because he has been through so much in

his life David started out as completely

rejected Saul came to anoint the King

the king was in Jesse’s house and Dave

and Jesse brought out everybody except

David that’s rejection he experienced

rejection he experienced being

overlooked he was out cleaning the Sheep

dealing with the Sheep all right he goes

from that godson anoints him he goes

from that he fights a lion he fights a

bear then he has to fight Goliath right

so watch this he talked about

disappointments

so David watches David gets anointed and

the Prophet says you are king over

Israel the next thing you know he is

running from Saul and he is out in the

waters his life looks nothing like what

was promised to him he knew all about

this

pointment but at least during those

years of of waiting on God so to speak

he had this guy named Samuel who was a

prophet to encourage him but then guess

what

Samuel dies on him so so the only point

of reference for all the prophecy has

now died so he’s running from Saul he’s

hungry his men are tired he’s got a few

hundred people who have made him King

they find themselves in a bad way then

the prophet Samuel dies on him and he

asked to define it within himself to

continue on because it’s a promise over

his life well we know things get better

right ultimately Saul dies David gets

the kingdom everything is good for a

minute until he sees his gal named

Bathsheba and he falls and he ultimately

you know the story read it when you get

a chance it’s an incredible swelling

incredible it’s an interesting story

it’s like green leaf it just it plays

out like green leaf you know we love

green they’ve got blessed Oprah and

everybody I love so much but it’s

scandalous and somebody gets killed and

then he gets Bathsheba pregnant and then

they lose the baby and then then then he

gets past that guys has mercy on him but

then his own son tries to kill him and

tries to take the kingdom from him then

his armor-bearer of years and years

tries to kill him and tries to take over

the kingdom and he goes to ups and downs

and ups and downs and ups and down and

he dies in good old age he’s qualified

he has seen so much in life but he says

I’ve been young but now I’m old and I

have seen a lot of things in life you

name it I have seen it I have seen

scandal after scandal I’ve seen battle

after battle I’ve seen confusing things

I’ve seen crazy things I’ve been

disappointed I have been hurt but one

thing I’ve never seen

is the righteous forsaken who was the

righteous in this context it’s the one

who aligns themselves with their ordered

steps he is trying to affirm you and I

in this moment of two things one is that

if you walk if you pay the price to walk

in ordered steps you pay the price to

walk in ordered steps God will never

forsake you you will never regret it you

will come out on top that’s what he’s

saying 1 pay the price of order steps

what is the price what is the price what

does that look like ok pastor that’s all

spiritual but what is what does that

look like ordered steps how do I pay the

price of order of steps how do I get my

my steps how do i align my steps one of

the things that God spoke to me is in

order to to walk in ordered steps you

have to pursue God you have to ask God

see the first step is pursuit the first

step in ordered steps is to step to God

in pursuit and to begin to inquire to

ask God what is the choreography of my

life now one of the things that God

showed me is that most people ask God

like this God show me which way to go

did you catch it you catch it this is

this how most of a Scot God show me the

path I need to walk in what’s wrong with

this picture God show me where I need to

walk show me what path I need to walk

and show me what well Sean got shot I

need you to show me

hey show me come on guys show me and

we’re wondering why God doesn’t show us

he can’t show you moving all over the

place God showed me right cuz you’re

already in your rhythm you’re already in

your rhythm you’re already like I

thought about doing your thing God

please show me God reveal to me your

will for me God show me which direction

and somebody be running God show me

which direction you want me to walk in

Lord Jesus

show me and God says nothing you know

why because you’re already doing your

thing the way that you get aligned with

ordered steps is you stop hmm what’s

this you stop and you suspend your

allegiance to your current rhythm oh I’m

about to drive down your street I’m

almost done in order to be positioned

and sensitive and still enough to even

hear the instructions were ordered steps

you have to stop and be completely

submitted to the rhythm and the

choreography of God that’s the hardest

part you have to say I know that I’ve

got this going on but right now I’m

being still because yesterday’s

choreography may not get me where God’s

trying to take me today you got to stop

yeah stop some can’t hear because you’re

not still the sound of the rhythm of you

doing what you want to do

is bleeding into God’s voice and God

will never compete with your will you’ll

never compete the instruction of ordered

steps are for those who value the voice

of God so he wants to do two things

he wants to encourage you in that there

is no one who has ever dove into this

ordered step lifestyle that has ever

been forsaken they’ve always come out on

top and then he says something that’s

also very interesting he says I’ve never

seen the righteous forsaken nor their

seed begging bread and I thought that

was interest and why don’t we go to

begging Braille how do we get into a

conversation about provision and one of

the things that that the Lord spoke to

me is that one of the greatest lies that

your enemy stirs up within you is he

stirs at fear by suggesting that walking

with God will make you poor oh let me

talk for a minute this is my last point

we’re done he he paints the picture that

says that if you do it God’s Way you’re

gonna lack watch this you’re gonna like

acceptance potentially you’re gonna lack

love relationships community and even

money there are people right now who

love God but will not walk with God

because they feel like walking in

another way will make them more money

they feel like it will be a downgrade I

feel that for somebody and so they

compromise who they truly are because

they don’t believe that walking with God

will pay off because I see everybody

else and they’re not walking with God

and they’re rich

I want to be Rick’s

we laugh but I’m telling you I know I

have friends

so which is a lie actually autofill Holy

Spirit it is a lot and particularly in

our town in our industry it is one of

the biggest lies it says if you even

mention God you will be poor you will be

poor in opportunities you’ll be poor in

relationships and you will be poor

listen it’s almost like saying there’s

no money in God look how crazy that

sounds when the word says in proverbs

10:22 that the blessing of the Lord

it makes rich and he has no sorrow with

it but perception is reality and so what

happens is quite now but what happens is

you have a whole industry of people that

are marching to the rhythm of a lie I’ve

never seen the righteous forsaken nor

their seed begging bread so he’s saying

I understand in 2020 that’s your

struggle mister talented missus talented

talented person that your struggle is

going to be one of your struggles gonna

be one of things going to keep you for

really diving in to God and walking in

ordered steps is you’re gonna think that

there’s no profit and being my profit

that there’s no that that that it’s not

profitable and you start thinking about

how am I going to eat in here today

there’s some people right now in this

room watching via livestream scared to

go all the way in because they feel like

if I go all the way in I will lose

opportunity and that is a lie straight

out of the pit of hell and I feel like

God wants to break something in this

room

right now because you’re next and your

provision and heavens resources are tied

in to you walking in your ordered steps

I think I want to lay into that right

now I think I want to lay into that

right now because I feel it so I feel

that really really strong in this room

there’s some people right now and you

have been you’ve been in this this

wrestling match because God has been

tugging at your heart but every time but

you’re afraid to really yield to God

because you feel like if you yield to

God then then what are these people

gonna think or how is this money gonna

come or how is this deal gonna work out

and it’s God gonna want me to to write

some Christian music or write a

Christian film or something like that an

old God forbid you ever do something

like that it is crazy and I hear God

saying I need you to trust me I gave you

gifts I gave you talents and I’ve got

opportunities

I’ve got order steps there are

businesses that will bless you that I

will erect in media and technology in

finances in real estate

nobody’s serving me begs for bread oh

something’s about to happen somethings

about to happen in here right now

I’m talking to somebody right now

somebody’s conflict it right now

somebody drank the kool-aid somebody

believed a lie somebody is afraid I hear

God saying no weapon formed against you

shall prosper you be my servant I will

open doors for you that no man can shut

oh I gotta work it I feel it right here

this is what I came to this is what I

came to this is what I came for

I want everybody stand up real quick

don’t you leave don’t you leave I’m

coming for you I’m about to break

something off of your life right now I’m

about to break something off of your

life right now and God’s gonna open

doors for you I’m gonna break something

off for you

fear never profits you it is false

evidence appearing real and God has been

pushing you that some in this room right

now and God has been pushing you he’s

been pushing you he’s trying to push you

into your purpose he’s trying to push

you into your calling but you’re a

little bit afraid because you’ve never

been there before and you’ve never seen

it before and you’ve never seen you

can’t see how you will prosper but I

hear God’s saying I will create ways I

will make ways out of no way this is the

thing I’ll do for my child if you hear

I’m after you I’m after your master you

I’m after you I’m after you I’m after

you I’m after you I’m after you I’m

gonna get to everybody but this but this

group of people you’re in a battle

because you have pursued something but

you are you sense that you’re losing

yourself in the pursuit of it so on the

one hand it seems to be going well your

your career is doing this but your life

is doing that get down here get down and

get down here your your there’s a part

of you your career is doing this but

your life your life and nobody knows and

and everybody around you watch this

everybody around you is cheering you but

you’re not cheering you and and what I’m

inviting you to are your ordered steps

because this is a moment I’m telling you

this is a moment I see it I’ve been

pastoring in this town for 15 years

and I’ve seen people come and I’ve seen

people go and I’ve seen people take off

like stars and fall like stars I’ve seen

people do it the right way by ordered

steps and maybe it didn’t happen

overnight

see that’s the issue the reason why God

strategy is always better than our

strategy is because our strategy is not

patient order steps takes time sometimes

you got to stay on one step for three

years because there’s something that is

being developed by you learning how to

stay a place and be planted into place

and not move it seems like nothing is

happening but something is happening

discipline is being developed I’m

talking to a lot of people right now and

here is the struggle man if I really

watch this and true to the God in me how

am I gonna eat so you mean to tell me

that the God who knew you before he put

you in your mother’s womb won’t feed you

won’t take care of you won’t bless you

won’t prosper you could it be that you

actually are getting less than what you

could get because the devil is not a

generous devil he just gives you enough

to keep you on the hook he know generous

devil he’s not an abundant devil

just give me a minute guys give me a

minute

this is this is why we I see people come

people go I’ve seen people walk away

from God like the rich young ruler in

Scripture you got to study when you get

a chance check it out the rich young

ruler he went to Jesus all

self-righteous and everything and he was

like what do I have to do to gain

eternal life Jesus looked at him I said

you know I need to keep the commandments

that or not he was kind of toying with

him he said yeah I’ve done all that and

he’s getting ready to walk away

justified right Jesus like hold up dude

one more thing he says I need you to

sell everything you have and give to the

poor and come with me here’s a crazy

thing crazy thing is the rich young

ruler went away but he didn’t just go

away

the scripture says he went away sad

because he he took the money but left a

piece of himself right there at the

moment of decision and then later on in

a text it gets better

Peter kind of got freaked out a little

bit people’s like yeah I left everything

to follow you we could all right it’s

gonna pay off right and Jesus said Peter

he says there is no one who has left

houses and lands and this and that who

will not receive watch this a

hundredfold everything they gave up

watch this you’re saying oh he must be

talking when you get to heaven he said

no he specified it he said we receive a

hundredfold now in this time I don’t

know who in the world I’m talking to

there are some moguls under the sound of

my voice right now you had a moment of

decision Oh got a Felix so strongly in

entertainment because I’ll tell you

right now entertainment needs new kings

you’re not ready for that you’re not

ready for that you’re not ready for that

and technology technology needs new

kings get to this altar i’ma pray

something’s gonna fall on you I’m

telling you something’s gonna fall on

you something’s gonna fall on you a

hundredfold hon it fold never look at

who’s in position never look at that you

ask the question who’s next

you don’t invest in what is you invest

in what will be harvest is what we will

be you invest four harvests I’m telling

you there is an anointing in this room

right now I am overtime all this but I

came for you there’s an anointing in

this room right now that will give you

the strength to be who you’re called to

be I feel God and a hundredfold blessing

there are people right now that came up

through this church that are sitting in

high places and they love Jesus they

love Jesus get as close to this altar as

you can and all you have to do see I

don’t want you to see this is a moment

like the rich young ruler had he walked

away sad when he could have walked away

not only with the hundredfold but more

importantly with himself you don’t ever

want the first person that you have to

have integrity towards as you hello

somebody you should be the first

beneficiary of your integrity

Oh God a filler you need to prove to you

that you have integrity there’s somebody

here and you don’t even trust you get to

this altar please I got it I can’t do

this forever but if God is speaking to

without strategy and your ordered steps

the steps that have been ordered for us

steps it’s the process to that strategy

that ultimately the life that you

envision can be the life that is

manifest God we thank you that this life

will not be a disappointment free life

but even in the disappointment there is

an assurance there is a guarantee that

there’s a strategy even in the midst of

the pain that I am becoming everything

that happens in me to me is happening

for me because my steps have been

ordered and there will never be a time

where you have forsaken me there will

never be a time when you are not with me

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

hallelujah

go go go you go dear go

[Music]

[Music]

Father in this house you’re doing that

which only you can do you’re shifting

some things there was some questions how

what if I do this what and I thank you

God that you’re breaking the questioning

there’s something that happened recently

what we’re done gosh but there’s

something that happened recently that

you may have heard about and some people

laugh but I think that God was in it

there was a young lady who was a dancer

and a video went viral of her falling

from off the pole he probably saw us and

it was an interesting video and she

falls off the pole right and she’s on

Wendy Williams Show and it was kind of

crazy because she had been asking God to

get her out of it because she realized

that it was beneath her right but

sometimes you feel like you got to do

what you got to do right and you don’t

have to do what you got to do not like

that but it feels like that and I don’t

judge anybody that feels that way but

but the liar will and she was praying

like god this is I know this is not

there’s more and through that thing and

she fell and she got hurt right she fell

I thought that was kind of interesting

though you fall so you fall a long story

short resources are coming to her she’s

going to school she’s getting out of

that not going back to that again

the steps of a good man are ordered

though you fall you should not utterly

be cast down that that is a sign you got

to look at stuff that’s a sign on her

level compromising right if she’s asking

God to get her out of it that means that

there was a part of her that says this

saying this is not it and you know that

wasn’t the most ceremonious way to get

out but she got out and I feel that for

somebody in here right now

and you’re afraid Who am I going to be

and how am I gonna eat and am I gonna be

accepted let me tell you something if a

person doesn’t accept you because you

love God you were in the wrong

relationship to start with no fruit can

come out of that none when I started

walking with the Lord it was painful I

would tell you I saw walking with the

Lord my guy was my best friend me my

best friend right and he just

disappeared and I wasn’t even judgment

or anything I was just you know I just

just started walking and he just he

disappeared but then I went back and I

looked at what our relationship was

based on clubbing and other stuff and

and so there was a connection but the

connection wasn’t the type of connection

that would bring out the best in me or

him what what are you willing to let go

of for your ordered steps for the

strategy for the reason why you’re here

I’m so proud of you

you came to this altar you’re going all

the way and we’re gonna lead you we’re

gonna guide you we’re gonna feed you but

most importantly God says I’ll never

forsake you know where your seatback

brick so father I thank you as your sons

and daughters have said yes here in this

moment I thank you God that you’re gonna

feed them you’re gonna lead them you’re

not gonna leave them stuck you’re not

gonna start them on a journey and then

abandon them you’re gonna be with them

in the high times and the low times

you’re gonna be a source of counsel and

wisdom encouragement affirmation and

blessing and I thank you God that there

is a 100 fold anointing in this house

right now a 100 fold and so whatever

they have to shake or whatever shakes

them because they said yes to you I

thank you that a 100 fold return will

come to them I thank you for ideas I see

creative strategies coming I’d see them

God is handing them out right now

creative strategies in technology in

marketing and entertainment so you got

to remember one idea God is the god of

ideas God is the god of thoughts one

thought can change your whole life one

thought so god I thank you that 100 fold

is coming down and not just in resources

in creativity in relationships in favor

because they said yes honor I thank you

for the to honor this I thank you for

the testimonies that are coming

you

you are becoming more

are becoming greater God kept some

things from you because they would not

match the manifold you which she would

catch what I just said Oh Oh God trying

to turn this thing off God kept some

things from you because you were sizing

yourself up wrong there are dimensions

of you that were still waiting to unfold

and if you would have got what you asked

for

you would have been unequally pay

[Music]

you would have been unequally paired

with the relationship you would have

been unequally paired with the

opportunity you had to be rejected God

had to say no the door had to close

because you

we’re still unfolding and the raw

alignments will hinder your folding

process are you tracking with me

we’ll keep you folded when you’re

supposed to unfold three or four times I

see an acceleration of your unfolding

your unfolding growth pow-pow-pow
